A SLAC team installs the final components of the LSST Camera focal plane that will become the heart and soul of the future camera of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.
An illustration shows polarons – fleeting distortions in a material’s atomic lattice ––in a promising next-generation energy material, lead hybrid perovskite. Scientists at SLAC and Stanford observed for the first time how these “bubbles” of distortion form around charge carriers...
